Dice of the Heavenly Spectrum

Each has a different magic metal: Orichalcum, Starmetal, Moonsilver, Jade, and Soulsteel. An individual can infuse each die with a mote of essence and make one roll per day. Different combinations produce different effects. The duration of the effect is until sunrise, at which time the dice can be used again.

As a general rule for the individual rolls, if an exalt type rolls his or her associated metal, the effect is greater. When both dice show such metals, the effect is maximized. Soulsteel has a negative effect for all exalt types except Abyssal, where it has a positive effect. Abyssals who roll the dice receive negative effects from Orachalcum.

The dice can also be used to settle a bet. The loser of the game is subject to a curse until the bet terms are met. The game is played with each exalt rolling one die. A roll of their associated metal wins them the game, unless the opponent has also rolled his or her associated metal. In this case, another roll is made. If a player rolls their opposite metal (for Abyssals, Orachalcum, for all other exalts, Soulsteel) then the player loses the game unless the opponent has also rolled his or her opposite metal. In this case, another roll is made. If a player rolls his or her associated metal while the opponent rolls their opposite metal, then the terms of the bet are doubled within reason.

The number rolled on a ten sided die corresponds to the metals as follows:

• 0-9: Orichalcum
• 7-8: Moonsilver
• 5-6: Starmetal
• 3-4: Jade
• 1-2: Soulsteel

  • Others: There is an eerie silence after the dice fall; there is no flash of essence and no immediate effect.

This roll has no effect if the character is outside fate.

• Soulsteel/Soulsteel
  • Abyssals: The first person the character kills today will create a shadowland with a radius of Essence*50 yards that persists for one week.
  • Others: The character is haunted by visions from the underworld. Her thoughts and senses are clouded, resulting in -1 Perception and -1 Wits. She faces a small chance of stepping into the underworld; for example, she could get up from a botched athletics roll only to see the underworld.

Incapacitation

An exalt can take a great risk when taking an incapacitating blow by rolling the dice. The effect for Solar exalts is as follows if such a roll is made:

• Orachalcum/Orachalcum
  • In one miscellaneous action, the Solar resurrects with full health, essence, and willpower restored.
• Orachalcum/Any Other Metal
  • The Solar cannot be killed for the remainder of the dice effect's duration (usually overnight, or 24 hours)
• Soulsteel/Soulsteel
  • In one miscellaneous action, the Solar resurrects immediately as an Abyssal exalted with full health, essence, and willpower restored.
• Soulsteel/Any Other Metal
  • The dying Solar is presented to the Neverborn as a candidate for deathknighthood.
